Verses 38-40

Says Jnanadeva,
‘you listening to me is
like
clasping
one’s palm by the palm
Words listening to words
Taste tasting itself
Light looking at itself.
Or gold dressed in gold
Face becoming mirror to face,
So is our dialogue
With each other.’

When we center in our being, where is the need for me to tell you anything? We just enjoy that state. Even this description is misleading. It’s like saying that I look at myself in your mirror and you do the same.
